Why is zzz90210's post dead? Everyone knows about tracking via images. I never considered something like bgsound, probably a lot of other people did not as well.
And it's the whole point of the article.

- ars 15y agoHis post is dead because this comment he made: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3662065 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3662065 Took his karma negative, and once that happened his account was killed. As a new member you have to be careful about controversial statements until you build up a karma cushion.
